We recreate the look and feel of shooting on an old Super 8mm film camera with this camera rig build that I call the faux Super 8 rig. I used the Fujifilm X-T4 for my setup, but really you can use any digital camera to fake the super 8mm film look. Most of super 8 look comes from the camera work itself and the editing to make it look grainy, distorted and vintage.
The Gear:
Fujifilm X-T4 geni.us/FujiXT4
Fujifilm X-T3 geni.us/FJXT3
X-T4 Camera Cage geni.us/XT4cage
X to EF Adapter geni.us/XtoEF
M42 Mount adapter to Canon EF geni.us/M42EF

1/4 to 3/8 adapter geni.us/threadAdapt
Tiffen Black Pro Mist 1/4 geni.us/BPM4
